Front Grill

Ran into a bird a couple of days ago and bent in the front lower grill that is in front of the Inner cooler, and while i kinda bent it back its just not quite right. Any recommendations for replacement? where, good prices? Seen VIS racing makes one, but for that price i'll deal with the bent one. Any built to better rigidity than OEM?

Can't beat OEM. Usually the aftermarket ones look like chicken wire.

Find someone who got in a front end collision and didn't damage the wire, the bumper comes as a single unit and they can probably sell you the old piece.

^^ Some of the guys made them themselves, and I think one guy over Evoxforums was selling them.

Duhveed posted a short how-to on page #2 here..

https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...omp-teeth.html

Personally, I wanna see someone do the teeth just below the hood. Kinda like this..
